2013-2014 DRAFT

Hi everyone, Im Mac. Where do you think we will be in the next draft? I think Dell has done a great job this offseason and all we need from the draft is 1 high pick. If we fall to the late lottery I see us moving up in the draft through a package of some of those second rounders and our first. Also, who do yall want? I personally really like Shabazz Muhamed's game a lot. If he improves his shooting he could easily be our James Harden. He has a work ethic like Lebron's! Dude never leaves the gym! He will be playing UCLA and will probably be a top five draft pick. Hope we get him. BTW hes a shooting guard that could be a small forward. Great pickup if we can get him.

DraftExpress has about 4 players that will play SF in the NBA from #7 - #14.

Alex Poythress is my number 1 SF prospect. He's 6'8, 210lbs, with a 7'0 wingspan and is very aggressive and athletic. He's going to be heading to UK after being ranked the #13 prospect in the country. Reminds me of MKG/Moe Harkless a little.. might be a bit bigger but not quiet as fluid as Harkless but skillset wise this seems to be a good comparison from.

Also, Tony Mitchell from North Texas will be very interesting to see. As a freshman, he averaged 14.7 points, 10.3 rebounds, and 3.0 blocks per game. He shot 56.7% from the field, 43.9% from 3, and 73.9% from the FT line with a PER of 29.6. He's 6'7, 215lbs, with a 7'2 wingspan. There's not much footage on him but I was able to find this impressive video from him.

As for centers, there's nobody I really love besides Cody Zeller or Rudy Gobert who we won't have a shot at.. don't see any of these guys being any better than Robin Lopez honestly and wouldn't be worth the pick. SF should definitely be our target this year; there's some good ones.

Don't think we will be lottery bound. I think we can sneak in playoffs simply off of Monty's ability to get his guys to focus 99% of the regular season. If there is one thing he is impressive at, it is that. We outplayed people regularly, but now we have a little more talent. Too early to say. I imagine there will be no huge FA signings only moves to acquire more picks. We will just keep accumulating best talent through draft and shift pieces as necessary.
